looking for super green. that is quhie i left one at each of your desks because you aurltdd up. for those that don't sign up for super green we will have for the green. go to clean powersf.org/enroll and enroll now. outside the marketing stuff i have been helping with, lafco did a job analysis of what jobs look like. we did the [inaudible] report talking about the ability to create thousands of jobs with the launch of a program. some asked we are launching the jobs where are all the jobs and took a step back and said the 9,000 jobs was over a 20 or 30 year window and are not all created on day one. what is san franciscos programs looking at and what did the other programs look at? specifically on the construction side. how quickly did they get to

their first projects built. what you find is the two bay area cca programs marin and sonoma on dione didn't have the project said built. a lot of other factors involve-sonoma got there quickly. lancaster got there quick but it sin the hot spot of solar. they can produce the best quality solar at the cheapest price, much better than the bay area. they have a much lower exist fee. they don't belong to pg & e and are in southern cam edison so they have advantages over the bay area, cca. the report looked and shows there are jobs that get created out of laurching a program and looked at the future potential as we ramp up and add

more customers. how do we do that. we did the anal iss in the report and if you have questions i can answer it otherwise i'll leave it at that. >> great. thank you. questions from here? thank you for your presentations and your work and analysis. appreciate it and we'll go to public comment. any member like to comment sxh forward and we'll do fwo minutes per person. >> hello. [inaudible] 350 sf. thank you to staff for all the work and worked with them a couple time at sundray streets to try to sign people up. if you google clean powersf stop the shell shock was the first thing to come up and now it isn't on the first page but the things that do come up with clean powersf website and

wikipedia entry which was written by stop the shell shock and i commandeered and rewrote and reedit until they gave up. i check td now, it is updated by someone with sane information but still not asf last fall. i think the puc should watch the wikipedia page. [inaudible] 1245 can go and write whatever they want and they used to. looking at the website it is a bunch of blocks. i think as we make this more consumer facing we may want to make the clean powersf branded a little differently than just the puc header with different content. really the thing i want to harp on the most is increasing the speed of phasing this in city wide and definitely talked to them

about it and puc commission, but ultimately when we look at silicon valley and the peninsula they are phasing in their entire load in 18 months to 2 years and we are talking about taking a lot longer than that. punenz luis doing a third at a time so start with well more than our first two phases will add up to. i know there is-we have to buy the power but we have the customers and know that we won't get opt out more than we are buying power so just like to ask we do what we can. >> thank you very much. any other member of the public like to comment? seeing none, we'll close public comment. i think our website is really critical the next few months so we can see how we can measure what is working along the way and make updates, that will be great. next item,

please. >> item 4, final report on the stid oon what the city and county of san francisco can do to help increase voter turnout. >> jason fried execive office. we did a presentation last month on the draft report and received comments back and made edits. most of the edits are technical in nature. there were two areas where we did addition to had report itself. when i say addition i talk like a paragraph or two. on the vote by mail section we didn't discussialo county, they did do a vote by mail. something similar san mateo so added information about that and we did do there was a piece of legislation that was introduced at the

legislative level we mentioned at the last meeting but not in the report done by assimbly member david chew. the rest is basically the same. it is good solid report. what i request from had commission is accept and file and i would consider that report at that point done and we move on to other projects at that point. >> great, very good. we do have mentioned around vote 16. >> yes, vote 16 is in there. vote 16 is mentioned in there. there are a lot of steps before that comes to realty though. >> that is great and great to see the presentation from youth commission and young people part the youth academy. they frame was around increasing turnout and consistent voting.

okay, we go to public comment. any member like to comment? seeing none, we'll close public comment and this is accept the report? do we need a vote on that? >> mr. chair, before you take a vote, you may need to resend the vote to exkoos commissioner mar. >> we have been joined by commissioner mar and so let rr do this one and we'll resend the vote on the previous one. commissioner crews. >> i'm sorry. i just want to have a opportunity to look at the vote 16 section before we accept the report. is there any way we can wait until the next meeting? >> okay. >> i'm sorry. >> we did public comment so we'll move on to-we can resend the vote on our minutes? number 2?

>> yes. >> so, motion to resend from commissioner crews. we want to have--commissioner mar. >> yes, please. thauchck.

>> if we extend it for a year and decided half way through the year you want to change legal service we can do that. that right is always the commissions right to do. there is also one additional thing the law

firm is requesting, they request increase of $10 per hour for each staff. you will see in the exhibit a new rate schedule for the staff that work for us. i have done research and analysis, we are at the high end of what legal services are paid for other lafcos in the bay area, we are not far outside oof it and if we throw that on top of what we were paying this year for legal service we are talking $500 more for the entire year, so it isn't that much more. we haven't had a raise in a couple years so it would be up to the the commission to decide if you want to give that raise, i have no objection to dpooing the raise and want to see us extend the contract. i believe this provides a lot of services we need and should have. i leave it up to you if you have discussion for the contract itself. >> thank you and thank you for

doing background work to compare two other cca councils. i'm okay with the increase and like to extend the contract so in favor so want to vocalize that. open tupe public comment. seeing nin close public comment. this is live before us. commissioner campos. >> make a motion to approve the extension of the contract with the acceptance of increase described by executive officer. >> seconded by commissioner mar and take that colleagues without objection. our next items. >> item 6, executive officers report. >> at this point i don't have anything new to report so i'll yooyield to the committee. >> very good. we'll open up

[meeting adjourned] good mornin

be joined by city attorney jessie smith also here are tom [inaudible] evan [inaudible] kristin jen son and victoria, all working diligently on the action we filed in san francisco superior court this morning. i'm joined by supervisor aaron peskin and soon scott wiener both of whom are working on isues related to this defend for many years. today, i'm announcing i filed suit against the silties largest property owners and land lob lords acad amof arts that

detailed [inaudible] purchase and lease properties for use city wide. again and again aa [inaudible] use thrf property acquired was unauthorized, unpermed or prohibited by local law. again and again aau [inaudible] at planning and building code requirements which every other san francisco property owners is expected to follow. again and again aau flouted basic requirements involving signage, historic preservation and environmental review and more. most seriously of all, again and again aau acquired residential and xhrjs properties to convert to student dorms and facilities. in doing so aau derived san franciscan of 300 residential developing we need in the misof affordable housing crisis as

well as critly needed office space. infact, the stale of aau's defiance is breath taking. according to a planning department memo last month, the 40 properties aau operates in san francisco shown on the map to my right, 33 failed to xum ply with permit entitlement or authorization requirements. academy of arts is a agregious land use scauth law and defiance per cysts at the worst possible time for our residential. for as long as aau has been breaking the law, city officials have been working to get them to comply the law and i'll confez i was sometimes less patient than some of my client departments about those efforts. make no mistake, for more than a decade our city worked with aau to resolve the violationment we extended aerfck professional courtesy and no one can doubt

the good faith san francisco showed work wg aau and yet again and again aau met our good faith with bad faith and again and again sought to fix existing violations and scheming to commit new violations. aau set deadlynns it missed and made promises it broke. with a lawsuit today the again and again's end. sue toog end the wrong doing we ask to adjudicate 23 aau properties in violation. another 10 properties on the map remain under review by my office and may be added in a complaint in a later date. our litigation make certain san franciscos

rights are protected and seeks objective no environmental r view process alone can accomplish. we seek to restore [inaudible] residential units. san franciscos right to have a voice shaping their neighborhoods. to end unfair business practices which disadvantage competitors who play by the rule jz penalties that are commensurate and sufficient to detrer would be laws in the future. i'm conclude saying how thankful i am with the lawyers. i'm grateful the effort and patient of zoning administrator scott sanchez, to the planning department and to our planning commission. i'm grateful to

aaron peskin who includes many san franciscos properties where aau is flout thg law for leadership and hard work over the years and to to scott wiener who pushed legislation to design to limit the aau's ability to flout san francisco's zonejug land use laws. before i take any questions i like supervisor peskin and when supervisor wiener can join us to say a few words. >> thank you city attorney, i'm here to commend the city attorney and staff for finally bringing this action. we have been waiting patiently perhaps two patiently for over a decades. this is disproportioninately impacted the northeast corner othe city where hundreds of units of affordable housing are removed during the height the crisis. the academy played san francisco for a fool but that is coming to a end today so let me thank city attorney her aa and deputy city

attorneys. >> thank you supervisor peskin. i'll let supervisor wiener say a few words when we gets here but in the interim happy to take questions or refer to my staff. >> [inaudible] >> took so long for? >> all this to come to a head. [inaudible] for a long time. >> it has been no secret i have been less patient than others. there has been i think a process of [inaudible] and dlie by academy of art leading people to believe they were going engage in a good faith effort to remedy the issues and to our clieants credit they gave them every opportunity. they bent over backwards to give them every opportunity and despite that the academy of art did not engage in good faith. there is no secret that

they are economically politically powerful and have a lot of resources at their disposeal and used every one to kick the can down the road. this has toened and that is why seeing the planning department issue their round of notice of violation and think everyones patients has run out. >> [inaudible] >> it can not alone. you probably heard or may hear from aquadomy of art we are so far along in the eir process why in the world would you drop the law suit now? this has nothing to do with slowing down anything. the eir alone doesn't remedy past wrong doing ortake care of violations that are currently there. it doesn't

slow down the eir process at all and the fact of the matter is this process has been going on for more than 5 years which is unheard of and that is because of their delay. >> the academy is iis aing they had a generous settlement proposal on the table and you turned it down. >> i say that is groussly over states the facts. settlement discussions the particulars i can't go into because they are conficial but nothing is further from the truth a generous offer was put forth. there was numerous settlement discussions but it became clear to me they were going no where because the aau wasn't taking this as serious as they needed to. i wouldn't have fall filed the suit if i didn't think i needed to. before i

take questions i want supervisor wiener to say few words. happy to have supervisor wiener here and he has been pushing legislation and working for years to limit the aau's ability to flaut the law and make sure we have even handed enforcement with educational institutions and mast r planning. jerk >> thank you dennis i want to thank the city attorneys office to moveic forward to enforce the law. it is a basic concept that everyone needs to fall ow the law. when we passed zoning limitations, when we passed housing measures to try to protect our scrarserantal housing stock, it is important those laws mean something and it means something when the board of

supervisors passes a law that says universities need to build their own housing but can't buy rent controlled apartments and convert to dorms. it means something when we have restrictions in the planning code limiting how you can use properties, there is a reason why we do that and everyone needs to follow the law. in 2012 i authored student housing legislation to do that, give incentives for universities to build student housing, we don't want student housing at the expense of the general population cannibalizing the housing stock. just a couple months ago we passed a legislation and thank to supervisor peskin to support it, to beef up our coud enforcement efts to make it easier and more efficient for our department to enforce the law and to empower the city attorney to

step in when thingerize not moving quickly enough. thank you to the city attorneys office to moving forward to make sure everyone follows the law. >> thank you. ileler continue taking questions to the extents people have them. >> you seem fired up >> i am fired up. this is embarrassing, we are sitting here and fighting this for 10 years and i'm angry about it. i know these two supervisors are angry about it. i'm angry about it because the vast majority of people in san francisco know what they have to do to play by the rules and if you had a issue at your house or small business you know the standard and the process you have to go through with the planning department. here we have a entity that didn't just ignore the rules, they actively flouted them and it is infearating. i think this go

tooz had heart of what either inspires or detracts from the publics confident in the integry of government. when they see a large and powerful entity flouting rules that the ordinary san franciscan has to abide by, it creates a confidence in their perception of the integtry of government and that denigrates all our residential and what we do, so i am. >> [inaudible] greed. >> they are one of the largest property owners in san francisco and this is a highly lucrative run by the institution and it is very profitable. >> is there evidence at all or investigation as to whether or not the corruption at city hall that allowed the academy to [inaudible]

violating the laws over a decade? >> we are focused on remedying the problem and can tell you that i do know that while i may have differed with the timeline that my clients over the planning department were taking, i know they were doing the best they can and were motivated in good faith. i look forward work wg them, their patience has run out and they have had it because they know how much time and effort they put into it. we are just moving forward with that and cofds we will be successful working together. >> [inaudible] as i recall where the academy appeared [inaudible] >> that is the timeline and the path that it is on to be--now, there

are other timelines that haven't been met, so it may be met, it may not be met, but i think the planning department planning commissions is clear about their expectations so like i said, that in and of itself doesn't remedy any of this. they are still a lot of work that needs to be done. there is lot of host of buildings probably more than a 3rd of what we identified to get the use authorized they have to go before the board of supervisors to get legislative changes so there is a fair amount of work that needs to be done. >> [inaudible] economic and political power to [inaudible] >> they know it was tremendous money and resources. we have been

through probably 7 or 8 law firms they have been through that made various promises, different promises, different representations to property the boferd supervisor jz planning department and planning commission. a great deal of advocacy use that makes use of their economic power and use of political process. that is what i think has enable #d this to gee on for as long as it has. so, i think everybody has come to the ends of their rope. >> okay. thank you very much.
